Rudepess of the Travelling Public.


The other day at dinner the conver-
sation turned upon the selfish rudeness
of portion of the travelling public.
One Of the persons at the table related
this incident; Some months ago the
passengers on might train on q branch
railroad were kept awake by the loud
aud iucessant conversation INDUCED
in by two men sitting at one end OF
the car. There were no sleeping cars
attached to .he train, and one of the
men IN the course of their wearisome
babble remarked: ut seems to me
that road which d esn't furnish sleep
ers ought at least TO tit up their cars
with head rests, such as you find on
some of the eastern roads, Where
upon voice at the other end OF the
car replied: "Head rests wouldn't
help much in this car so long as those
two men down at the other end kept
on talking" The passengers roared
with delight, and one of the two Of
tenders bristled up ami declared he'd
talk Just as much as he pleased, but
pretty soon quiet reigned. The pas
senger who so neatly administered the
needed reproof was Edward Everret,

What They Trembled for Out West.

A revivalist in a Michigan town had
discoursed on the Bible for two hours
and got his audience worked up to the
point Of enthusiasm. d
"Now, my hearers, there is one thing
it would be impossible for us to get
along without. Who can tell what it
is?"
He expected the audience to say
religion but he discovered that he
had mistaken the character Of his hear
ers when a grizzly lopg-beard arose
and said: "Quinine. ."-Judge.

A Cigar Shot Out.
COAL MINERS NARROW ESCAPE FROM
A MOLLY MAGUIRE's BULLET.

A group of gentlemen wero sitting
in a coach yesterday on a train which
arrives in this city over the Buffalo,
Rochester and Pittsburg at 1880, tell
ing stories. The last began by telling
the group that he was engaged In the
coal business, and eighteen years ago
had charge of mine near Mahanoy
City. In some way he bad incurred
the enmity of the Molly Maguires, who
passed resolutions to remove him. A
desperate scoundrel, but man who
was rated as first-class shot was ap
pointed to do the dirty work, The
assassin concealed himself on dark
clustering night near path where he
knew his victim would pass and waited
his appearance.
The speaker said he had always been
an habitual smoker, and on the night
in question was smoking cigar from
which he had just knocked the ashes
before approaching the murderer's
place of concealment, put the cigar in
his mouth aud turned his head, as an
unusually strong gust OF wlnd came
around point head OF him, when be
heard shot and simultaneously bull
let whistled past his face and took of
the end of his cigar, He turned i'm
mediately, and before the purpose Of
the Moilie could be accomplished ht
was out of sight. Several yesrs after
ward the man who bad attempted to
murder him was dying and made a
desth-bed confession, stating that ht
bad been appointed to kill the speaker
and had fred directly at the end of his
lighted cigar, but for some unaccount
abl reason had miased his mark, As
he concluded the narrator drew sigh
of apparent relief and said it was the
most narrow escape he ever had, ane
attributed the saving of his life to hif
habit of smoking. Bradford Star.
